Class B Week 3 Homework Submission
Crazy_Ivan43 for Gertie's Drink Ad
Monologue B-G-K: Many of you did not project as much in your week 2 monologue compared to your week 1. Please remember to continue to project, imagining that you are on a stage without a mic and that you need to ensure even the people in the back rows can hear you. This week, I would like everyone to really focus on their posture and breathing when reading. Ensure you have take a big diaphragmatic breath every time. Using breath marks should really help you when it comes to preparing your body to take that breath as well.
Peer Review: Please provide at least 1 feedback to someone who has not received a feedback yet on the homework link. Seeing others' feedback and providing feedback yourself is a great way to learn as well.
Have fun!
I definitely heard you projecting, great job! You are breathing largely into your chest and I don’t think you took in enough air right at the start for your opening line. Much of the strength you could be getting from your air is being pushed back down. Your read was also a little fast in the beginning. Slow your pace down to give yourself more time to breath and allow that air to flow as you speak. I can tell that your enunciation is pretty good, but it was hindered by the fast pacing you chose as well. Do lip trills and make sure you do it with a sound, so you know what having controlled air flow while voicing feels like. The cork trick will help you with slowing down your pacing and sharpening your articulations.
